This is against the amsn-0.95.ebuild. You should now that it is possible that that snapshot could be outdated (from a development point of view ) since they now use SVN instead of CVS. Just checkout the SVN version and build your own amsn_cvs.tar.gz and put that in $DISTDIR _________________"Man fears the darkness, and so he scrapes away at the edges of it with fire."

Here is a SVN ebuild, not an amsn_dev ebuild !
Let me explain it a bit more :
As amsn 0.96 will soon be released (but don't ask me when ), and because some devs want to do deep changes in the code, our svn is splitted.
The directory "amsn" (used by that ebuild) has those deep changes so it's not what will be amsn0.96, but is more like an amsn post 0.96.

Here is the ebuild :

Code:

# Copyright 1999-2006 Gentoo Foundation
# Distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License v2

pkg_postinst() {
ewarn "You might have to remove ~/.amsn prior to running as user if amsn hangs on start-up."
ewarn "Remember, this stuff is SVN only code so dont cry when"
ewarn "I break you :)."
ewarn "If you want to report bugs, go to our forum at http://amsn.sf.net/forums"
ewarn "or use our IRC channel at irc.freenode.net #amsn"
ewarn ""
ewarn "In order to use this cvs version, run amsn_dev instead of amsn."

}

The USE are debug nolibng gnome kde skins plugins. skins and plugins are here to know if you also want to use skins and plugins from the svn.
kde and gnome are only for kde and gnome menus.
nolibng should never be enabled, except if one developer ask you to (in the amsn forums for example).

If you want to use the amsn_0_96 branch, replace the line
ESVN_REPO_URI="https://svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/amsn/trunk/amsn"
by
ESVN_REPO_URI="https://svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/amsn/branches/0_96/amsn"

If it works, or not, please send feedbacks.

Because, for the moment, we don't support it.
Then, if you want to use tcl/tk 8.5, there are ebuilds on the forums. (Those ebuilds are not well : replace 8.5a3 by 8.5a4 in those ebuilds; and they are not slotted because tcl/tk 8.5 is still unstable)
But if you have bugs, the tcl team (and us, if you want AA fonts) will ask you to use the cvs version, so ..._________________billiob

Okay I got it working. I think it was a copy problem because I deleted the ebuild file and created and pasted the source again and it worked. But amsn_dev kept crashing, so I emerged the 0.95 version again _________________Ep2.nl | Developers Community
